I had the opportunity to work with a wonderful bride this past week. Sara rang in the New Year with a beautiful wedding and I must say she was simply wonderful to work with. The reason I mention this is because we communicated a lot prior to her wedding about what she wanted, style choices, and want she felt did not work for her. As a makeup artist it is sometimes hard to tell if a particular look is working for a client because they remain silent. It is important to always remember that as a client your choices, not the personal preferences of the makeup artist, should always be the #1 priority.
Do not feel like you have to apologize if you do not like a color an artist picks out for you. Know that feedback is really appreciated and by speaking up you will get the exact look you want for any occasion.
I am also excited about a new SyFy series that begins on January 26th. It is called Faceoff and features Effects Makeup Artists in a new reality competition. We have seen a few shows with Makeup Artists before, but none like this. So it will be interesting to see the work and I can not wait until the first show. Thanks Jeanne for reminding me!
And last but not least, since it is the start of a new year start it off stylishly by sprucing up your make up bag. For me I am adding a new fragrance to my scent wardrobe and am awaiting the arrival of my Sephora order any day! Also, had to get another Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash Mascara! I am telling you that this stuff is amazing!
I rarely purchase the same mascara twice because nothing gives me that false lash look without the false lashes, but Make Up For Ever delivers! It is definitely one of my Wall of Blame picks for 2010!
I want to hear from all of you though as to what product you could not live without after trying it for the first time in the last twelve months. What do you suggest I add to my makeup arsenal?
